I was thinking about how the internet is changing and how Don sometimes laments the decline of message boards on the radio show. This led me to the conclusion that what the board needs is to be more like social media. Perhaps, a feature where users could post a status or headline similar to what they would post on social media. Maybe have a little section on the side of the screen for this. I understand we have a chat and that is great, but this could be a helpful added feature. What do you guys think?

I would like it. It would allow me to share what yogurt I am currently eating, and the latest gossip. Ohh wait that's facebook.

I wouldn't mind having a status bar. It would be nice to have light chats outside of forum posts, and the function would allow people to share details that are not thread worthy (I never see many people in the chat either, I think the majority of users don't know it exists even).

I thought this idea was going to be well-received. I think the key for the continued success of Stormfront is converting it to a more social media like platform. If people are leaving traditional message boards for social media, let's make this site more interactive and "hip".

I think there should be a social media site alongside the forum. At this point, Stormfront is a hodgepodge of informative posts and social chit-chat. We could separate the two and keep the Stormfront forum as a library, an archive of information, while using a sister site for social chit-chat.
